About this cemetery

Kozala is the municipal cemetery of Rijeka, located in the Kozala district. It was placed under full protection as a cultural and historical complex by a Ministry of Culture decision of 23 March 2006, and it is described as the oldest cemetery in the city. Its mausoleums, including those of the Whitehead, Scarpa, Gorup, Leard and Manasteriotti families, make it something of an open-air art gallery, and a pet cemetery on the grounds was reopened in 2021. For enquiries, call +385 51 514 300 or see kd-kozala.hr.
